Barcelona Terror Attack

17 August 2017 by villia Leave a Comment

I wasn’t going to say anything about this because it should be obvious what I think. People that kill for their race or religion are misguided, stupid and morally bankrupt.

If there is a reason for this life that we live, it has to be to treat each other well and try to learn something. Killing innocent people does neither and only shows how a life of a (usually) young man has become a perfect failure.

The USA is in deep trouble and will have to sort itself out. Barcelona will be fine. They’ve been through hell before and came out on top. The city will be fine, but the victims won’t and that makes this all pointless and stupid.

I keep saying pointless and stupid, but that is what this is.

Here is a passage from a novel I wrote. It was inspired by that fire in the people of Barcelona. A passage from a stupid book isn’t going to make any difference, but I’m not there and I can’t help in any other way.

The people of Barcelona were a busy crowd and the streets were full of life. They moved like ants, going about their daily routine. Nothing seemed to stop them from doing whatever they needed to do. Not even a civil war.

So there you have it. Dumb terrorists. Your sacrifice is in vain. Oh, and the virgins? Forget about it. Lemmy is dead. There are no virgins left in Heaven. Not that you’re going there anyway.

Mad World

20 November 2015 by villia Leave a Comment

The day so far.

1. Men are free to rape women in Iceland.

2. Icelandic working class can’t get a payrise because it’ll cause inflation. Politicians will get a 9.4% hike though. Because they’re so useful, I guess.

3. Most of the Paris attackers are either dead or arrested. The rest are known. France has decided to bomb thousands of civilians in Syria though. Tit for tat, because that’ll solve everything and not create more jihadists.

4. American presidential candidates are insane. And fascists.

5. An old man released a new music video. Nobody has a clue what it’s about, but it has been watched 650.000 times in the last 24 hours. I may be responsible for half that, so who is the other fool?

Zouheir

16 November 2015 by villia Leave a Comment

The name of security guard that stopped one of the killers from entering the stadium in Paris is Zouheir. He is a Muslim and this is somehow a big deal. I don’t see why.

Being somehow surprised, relieved or extra happy that the hero is a Muslim seems to indicate some kind of a belief that a Muslim would react differently from a person of another faith. That he would have let the killer in or that he would have had any kind of understanding or sympathy for the killer’s motives.

This is ridiculous. A decent human being will try to stop a murderer and Muslims are just as likely to be decent human beings as people of other faiths.

His name should be remembered and celebrated, but his faith is of no relevance, except to prove to idiots that Muslims are not the problem. Idiots are.
